Salvage

<b>In this heartwarming graphic novel romance from the adaptor and illustrator of <i>The Handmaid’s Tale: The Graphic Novel</i>, two young artists' paths intertwine as they navigate the complexities of love in a world where sea levels have risen and society is sharply divided.</b><br><br>Paolo lives in the Flats, a dangerous, water-logged community where families survive by salvaging materials from skyscrapers hidden just beneath the ocean’s surface—remnants of a world before sea levels rose. Scavenging the depths comes with its risks, but when Paolo discovers a suitcase of designer clothes, he decides to fulfill his dream: To spend one night in the Uplands, a place of privilege, excess, and freedom. There he meets Jules and her friends, and what begins as a single night of reckless adventure turns into a secret double life—and a seemingly impossible romance that forces Paolo to reckon with who he is, where he belongs, and the importance of being true to himself.<br><br>Rendered in vibrant watercolor illustrations that bring every scene to vivid life, <i>Salvage</i> is as much a visual masterpiece as it is a moving tale of love and self-discovery. Renée Nault’s atmospheric and luminous hand-painted art draws readers into Paolo and Jules’ world, promising an unforgettable coming of age story.
